  • The Orontids of Armenia by Cyril Toumanoff
    The Orontids of Armenia by Cyril Toumanoff This study appears as part III of Toumanoff's Studies in Christian Caucasian History (Georgetown, 1963), pp. 277-354. An earlier version appeared in the journal Le Muséon 72(1959), pp. 1-36 and 73(1960), pp. 73-106. The Orontids of Armenia Bibliography, pp. 501-523 Maps appear as an attachment to the present document. This material is presented solely for non-commercial educational/research purposes. I 1. The genesis of the Armenian nation has been examined in an earlier Study.1 Its nucleus, succeeding to the role of the Yannic nucleus ot Urartu, was the 'proto-Armenian,T Hayasa-Phrygian, people-state,2 which at first oc- cupied only a small section of the former Urartian, or subsequent Armenian, territory. And it was, precisely, of the expansion of this people-state over that territory, and of its blending with the remaining Urartians and other proto- Caucasians that the Armenian nation was born. That expansion proceeded from the earliest proto-Armenian settlement in the basin of the Arsanias (East- ern Euphrates) up the Euphrates, to the valley of the upper Tigris, and espe- cially to that of the Araxes, which is the central Armenian plain.3 This expand- ing proto-Armenian nucleus formed a separate satrapy in the Iranian empire, while the rest of the inhabitants of the Armenian Plateau, both the remaining Urartians and other proto-Caucasians, were included in several other satrapies.* Between Herodotus's day and the year 401, when the Ten Thousand passed through it, the land of the proto-Armenians had become so enlarged as to form, in addition to the Satrapy of Armenia, also the trans-Euphratensian vice-Sa- trapy of West Armenia.5 This division subsisted in the Hellenistic phase, as that between Greater Armenia and Lesser Armenia.

  • Di Cornelio Tacito
    ANNALI di Cornelio Tacito www.writingshome.com Cornelio Tacito - Annali 2 www.writingshome.com Cornelio Tacito - Annali LIBRO PRIMO 1. [14 d.C.]. Roma in origine fu una città governata dai re. L'istituzione della libertà e del consolato spetta a Lucio Bruto. L'esercizio della dittatura era temporaneo e il potere dei decemviri non durò più di un biennio, né a lungo resse la potestà consolare dei tribuni militari. Non lunga fu la tirannia di Cinna né quella di Silla; e la potenza di Pompeo e Crasso finì ben presto nelle mani di Cesare, e gli eserciti di Lepido e di Antonio passarono ad Augusto, il quale, col titolo di principe, concentrò in suo potere tutto lo stato, stremato dalle lotte civili. Ora, scrittori di fama hanno ricordato la storia, nel bene e nel male, del popolo romano dei tempi lontani e non sono mancati chiari ingegni a narrare i tempi di Augusto, sino a che, crescendo l'adulazione, non ne furono distolti. Quanto a Tiberio, a Gaio, a Claudio e a Nerone, il racconto risulta falsato: dalla paura, quand'erano al potere, e, dopo la loro morte, dall'odio, ancora vivo. Di qui il mio proposito di riferire pochi dati su Augusto, quelli degli ultimi anni, per poi passare al principato di Tiberio e alle vicende successive, senza rancori e senza favore, non avendone motivo alcuno. 2. Dopo che, uccisi Bruto e Cassio, lo stato restò disarmato e, con la disfatta di Pompeo in Sicilia, l'emarginazione di Lepido e l'uccisione di Antonio, non rimase a capo delle forze cesariane se non Cesare Ottaviano, costui, deposto il nome di triumviro, si presentò come console, pago della tribunicia potestà a difesa della plebe.

  • Geographic and Cartographic Encounters Between the Islamic World and Europe, C
    Mapping Mediterranean Geographies: Geographic and Cartographic Encounters between the Islamic World and Europe, c. 1100-1600 by Jeremy Francis Ledger A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2016 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Diane Owen Hughes, Chair Professor Michael Bonner Associate Professor Hussein Fancy Professor Karla Mallette Professor Emilie Savage-Smith, University of Oxford © 2016 Jeremy Francis Ledger All Rights Reserved To my parents ii Acknowledgements It is with a deep sense of gratitude and appreciation that I recall the many people who generously shared their time, knowledge, and friendship during this dissertation’s composition. First, my greatest thanks go to my advisor, Diane Owen Hughes, who has guided, supported, and taught me throughout my graduate studies at Michigan. Her intellectual brilliance and breadth of knowledge has shaped this dissertation and my own thinking in so many ways. I could not have asked for a better mentor. I also want to give a special thanks to my dissertation committee. I learned much from long discussions with Michael Bonner, who shares my enthusiasm for the history of medieval and early modern geography and cartography. His advice on sources to consult and paths to follow has been instrumental in the completion of this project. I thank Hussein Fancy, for stimulating conversations and for always pushing me to think in new ways. I have further benefitted from my other committee members, Emilie Savage-Smith and Karla Mallette. Their careful reading and thoughtful critiques have been invaluable to me. At Michigan, the Department of History, the Medieval and Early Modern Studies Program, the Eisenberg Institute, and the Rackham Graduate School have provided an intellectual home as well as funding for my research and writing.

  • Byzantine Names for SCA Personae
    1 A Short (and rough) Guide to Byzantine Names for SCA personae This is a listing of names that may be useful for constructing Byzantine persona. Having said that, please note that the term „Byzantine‟ is one that was not used in the time of the Empire. They referred to themselves as Romans. Please also note that this is compiled by a non-historian and non-linguist. When errors are detected, please let me know so that I can correct them. Additional material is always welcomed. It is a work in progress and will be added to as I have time to research more books. This is the second major revision and the number of errors picked up is legion. If you have an earlier copy throw it away now. Some names of barbarians who became citizens are included. Names from „client states‟ such as Serbia and Bosnia, as well as adversaries, can be found in my other article called Names for other Eastern Cultures. In itself it is not sufficient documentation for heraldic submission, but it will give you ideas and tell you where to start looking. The use of (?) means that either I have nothing that gives me an idea, or that I am not sure of what I have. If there are alternatives given of „c‟, „x‟ and „k‟ modern scholarship prefers the „k‟. „K‟ is closer to the original in both spelling and pronunciation.
